I can tell you're thinking of some place you'd rather be althought you're here with me
You're acting so distracted and your eyes are always checking on the time
And now you're telling me you've really got to go
You say you're sorry and you'll call me but I know
There's a chariot waiting with the wheels on fire
The dark velvet strains of a midnight choir
And you don't hear me now
No you don't hear me at all
No not a word at all
Rome will fall
You would be mistaken if you think I'll play the victim in a loser's game
I'm not one for revenge but then again I really think it might be fun
And while you're looking for the lions to go free
They'll be invisible to everyone but me
There's a chariot waiting with the wheels on fire
The dark velvet strains of a midnight choir
And you don't hear me now
No you don't hear me at all
No not a word at all
Rome will fall
There's a chariot waiting with the wheels on fire
The dark velvet strains of a midnight choir
And you don't hear me now
No you don't hear me at all
No not a word at all
There's a chariot waiting with the wheels on fire
The dark velvet strains of a midnight choir
And you don't hear me now
No you don't hear me at all
No not a word at all
Rome will fall
Rome will fall
